Her voice immediately captivates - warm, big and bold - straight from the heart. If that tone and energy sound familiar, we second that emotion. Elona and Tavana are two peas in a pod - stellar musical partners.Hawaiʻi Public Radio recently broadcast a concert by Erika Elona, and you can often catch her headlining several of Oahu's top music venues. Wonderful to welcome Elona to Hyatt Centric!WILLIE K FUNDRAISERWillie K has brought countless smiles to Hawaii residents and visitors for decades - a world class musician / entertainer (and comedian / impersonator) who has shared performance after performance around the world and in recent years extended a major helping hand to Hawaii's up-and-coming stars including Tavana.
